even though it takes a little effort, but not much, I like to fry up burger meat, add some jarred gravy and onions, and throw it on rice with a side of green beans.

For breakfast, it is usually microwave oatmeal and toast.

for lunch, just a simple sandwich and maybe soup

Hard boiled eggs and some extra sharp cheddar cheese. Cheese must be cut from a block. Definitely no individual wrapped slices, (UGH)

Breakfast: plain oatmeal with sliced almonds and cinnamon, a piece of fruit, yogurt
Lunch or dinner: a sandwich, a sweet potato, a piece of fruit, and maybe some hummus

Many of you have mentioned grilled cheese sandwiches. Have you discovered the pleasures/virtues of TOASTED cheese sandwiches? I learned this from a James Beard cookbook. Take two pieces of toast, drop a handful of shredded cheese on one, mash the other down, give it 30 seconds in the microwave. A nice, nongreasy version of "grilled".

I actually do toasted cheese sandwiches all the time but differently than yours.

I lightly toast 2 pieces of bread. Slide out tray (only toaster ovens work for this) sprinkle cheese on both pieces. Slide back track and set on broil. When the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned, take out and eat open face or put together.

YUM. I also add provo to one side and salami to the other and toast till both are sizzling delicious, put together and eat.
